Application filed May 6,1905. Serial No. 259.199.

To t whom it m/u/y (NI/110E771,

lie it known that .l, Uininnns hi. illO'DI), a citizen oi the United States, residingatliaharpe, in the county of Hancock and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improve- ;l'nents in loultry-l l aterers, of which the following is a specification.

Tllhis invention relates to watering devices For poultry, and pertains especially to a combination watenbucket and drinking-pan.

The object of the invention is to provide a bucket-like device having a pan provided with an iurturned flange surrounding the pan for watering poultry. @imilar devices have here tot'ore been employed for wateringpoultry; but their construction and arrangement are such as to unlit them for successful practical use For carrying water. It is therefore the purpose otli this invention to overcome the objections and disadvantages Found in such devices and to furnish a device adapted to carry water Without spilling and supply the pan with water for p0ultry-drinking.

in the accompanying drawings, forn'iing part of this application, lFigure 1 represents the device as used for carrying water. Fig. 53 shows the device in position to water poultry. lhi 3 is a longitudinal section. 4c is a cro. -section.

TIlhe same numeral references denote the same parts throughout the several views of the drawings.

The device is made of any suitable thin sheet metal, preferably rectangular and in three parts, two of which constitute the body or bucket and the other the pan. The pan 1 lorms one side of the rectangular-shaped bucket 2, and a flaring flange 3, projecting from the pan, surrounds this bucket side to :l orrn a trough l entirely around the device, so that drinking from the trough is not con- Iined to one end or side of the device. The outer sheet of metal 5 ol the buckethas proper connection with the pan, preferably by so]- dering, and the inner sheet 6 has inturned 'l'langes I", by which this sheet is secured to the outer sheet. (Inc end of the sheet 6 is inclined and terminates short of the pan to form a wa- 'llOI'-I)2tSSfl.gB 8, and the other end forms the bottom of the device when used as a bucket and the end of the device when used. as a waterer. it. bail 9 is pivoted to the sides oi. the outer sheet, so as to stand vertically from the end of the device in earryi ng it and to be swung over said end onto the top of the device when the latter is used For watering.

.It will be seen that in carrying water the device is equal to or better than an ordinary bucket, owing to its shape and position of the bail, so that it may be tilted or swung without wasting or s iilling the water.

.It is obvious that the surrounding trough aI'Iords means for watering great numbers of fowls at the same time, and that the peculiar arrangement and combination of parts prod uces a simple, durable, and inexpensive poultry-waterer.

lrlaving thus described my invention, what It claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A poultryavaterer comprising a pan having a surrounding liaring I'lange, a water-carrier secured to the pan so as to form a surroundii'ig trough, one side o'l the carrier being formed by the pan with a nutter-passage between the pan and one end of the carrier, and a bail pivoted in this end of the carrier.

2. it po ultry-waterer com prising a pan having a surrounding I'lango, a rectangular watercarrier having one side closed by the pan and composed of two parts one of said parts :Iorming the carrier ends with a watenpassage between one of said ends and. the pan, and. the other of said parts constituting three sides of the carrier, and a bail pivoted to swing over one of said ends.

.In a poultry-waterer, the combination with a pan, of an outer metal sheet having its side edges secured to the pan to term side troughs, an inner metal sheet having 'l'langes secured to the said. sides, one end ot' the inner sheet being inclined and terminating short of the pan to form a waten iassage, and the other end being secured to the pan, and a suitable bail pivoted to the sides of the outer sheet.

In testimony whereof I aliix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
